Do you need a new boiler?
When you need a new boiler in your home, you will often notice some telltale signs. One of the first indicators that you need a new boiler is your boiler’s age. If your boiler has been in use for over ten years, you should consider replacing it. The older your boiler gets, the more likely it is to break down and cost you more in repairs. A new boiler is also likely to be more efficient. Some other signs that you need to change your boiler include odd noises, frequent breakdowns and repairs, leakages and a fluctuation in water temperature.
If you notice any of these issues, you should act swiftly by getting in touch with ALK Plumbing & Drainage, your experts at boiler installation Brentwood. Using a boiler with issues can be dangerous to you and your family, cost you a lot of money on repairs and energy bills or just be all-around inconvenient.

Types of boilers we fit
The most common types of boilers in the UK are conventional boilers, combi boilers and system boilers. At ALK Plumbing & Drainage,
we fit all three types of boilers depending on your needs and specification.
Conventional Boilers
A conventional boiler is usually large and it takes up more space due to its setup. Conventional boilers are connected to a storage tank that holds hot water. The hot water tank connects directly to a cold water tank, so it can receive water from the cold water tank when it gets drained. This explains why a delay sometimes occurs when the hot water tank is completely drained.
Combi Boiler
A combination boiler does not use a storage tank but instead heats up water directly from the mains water supply. Combination boilers are used in properties that need an on-demand hot water supply. They are usually compact and fitted to the wall. They are easy to install as they require lesser pipework than conventional boilers.
System boilers
System boilers are more common in large homes with high demands for hot water and central heating. The boiler has a separate cylinder for storing water through which it supplies constant hot water throughout the home. It is different from a combi boiler that only supplies hot water on demand.
How much does a replacement boiler cost?
Getting boiler replacement Brentwood entails numerous factors, as the cost of the boiler is only part of the total expense. You must consider the installation costs too, which may be more than the cost of the boiler itself. Replacing or installing your boiler is not a do-it-yourself job, as the law requires all boilers to be fitted by engineers on the Gas Safe Register.
To evaluate the cost of a replacement boiler, you have to consider the boiler’s cost, the amount of work required, the number of extra parts needed and the complexity of the project. Typically, a new boiler reveals the other elements of the heating system that may need upgrading or replacing, such as valves, radiators and pipework.
